Fuzzy Supervisory Controller for Improved Voltage Dynamics in Power Factor Corrected Converter

This paper investigates performance of Fuzzy Supervisory Controller (FSC) in control of power converters. A FSC module is added to conventional narrow bandwidth voltage regulator in Power Factor Corrected (PFC), Voltage Source Converter (VSC) to improve DC bus voltage regulation. PFC converter is selected for this work as conventional design of the PFC converter requires narrow bandwidth DC bus...

Design of a Cost Effective Optimized Power Factor Measurement Device for Nonlinear Single Phase Home Appliances

Optimized sampling technique to capture the harmonic distortion is the key for power factor measurement of nonlinear loads. Nowadays the power utilities and appliances are fully nonlinear in nature and thus the distortion of harmonics plays an important role and impacts the accuracy of many power factor measurement circuits and instruments. This study provides a cost effective design with a pro...

RUI for Home Appliances

A Robotic User Interface (RUI) is a concept wherein robots are used as interfaces for human behavior. We have developed a RUI system for communications and given it the appearance of a teddy bear. This system allows interpersonal communications using robots as physical avatars. In this paper, we propose a new use of the RUI as a physical agent for control of home appliances. This use of a RUI e...

Power Factor Corrected Bridgeless Buck–Boost Converter-Fed with Adjustable-Speed BLDC Motor Drive

This paper presents a power factor corrected (PFC) bridgeless (BL) buck–boost converter-fed brushless direct current (BLDC) motor drive as a cost-effective solution for low-power applications. An approach of speed control of the BLDC motor by controlling the dc link voltage of the voltage source inverter (VSI) is used with a single voltage sensor. This facilitates the operation of VSI at fundam...
